Girl, you have no idea what a great time we had. We managed to meet up with a Freeper whom we had never met, who had our tickets, then we found our way all the way down to the rope line. After the speech Pres. Bush made his way right down our rope line. He reached over and kissed OWF right on the cheek, and Eric and I managed to get a hand shake. We were all thrilled to pieces, but OWF was smitten. She & Eric spent the night at my house and I couldn’t get her to wash her face. Said she was never going to wash it again, as I recall. LOL. It was a glorious evening, not only because of getting so close to Mr. Bush, but for me, because of spending it with a good FRiend. But the best part was that wonderful young man who was the sweetest guy I’ve ever met. Sure made me wish I was 55 years younger. He was so gracious to this old woman and I appreciated it. I’ve lost track of time. What year was that OWF?
And he's just as sweet now as he was then. He remembers you fondly, Nan. I wish you could see him now. A man. A real man!
(And I eventually did wash my cheek. ;*)
